Steam has "unplayed" as an option for dynamic playlist or whatever it's called... Helps keep track of games you picked up but haven't played.

Pretty helpful.

Idk the energy i need to start a new game is huge :c

Yeah it's definitely been handy for me so I can see what game I should play next outside of the current meta of games

You call it helpful, I call it anxiety-inducing.

i’m starting to wonder if maybe it’s better for me financially to not interact with the sales and then just occasionally eat the price of a full price game if i really want to play it. unless of course the sale is for a game that i’ve taken a sacred vow to play within the next year

Nearing a thousand games, yet I play the same 5 on rotation that I was playing years ago.

I have a small number of games in my collection that I know for a fact that I have not played them at all. To be fair, 2 of the games are demos, the other is free-to-play IIRC but that's completely irrelevant.

My actual point is, none of the games in my Steam library that I for sure have never played show "PLAY TIME 0 minutes" nor "LAST PLAYED Never."

Is this an old UI thing, is that a made up playtime summary, or is the UI different on different platforms?

It's from the Android app.

It is fun when do pick up one of these games though usually.
